Ok, I have OpenSSH installed on two servers. I SSH to server 1. On server 1 I ssh-keygen. I give it an empty passphrase. scp identity.pub to server 2. On server 2 I cat ident > authorized_keys on server 1 I ssh -l user server I asks for the password. If I give it the login it works. Now, I have SecureCRT on my windows machine and it connects to server 2 using a key just fine. Any clues? Does it have to do with me being SSH'd in to server to start with?

sorry, without sshd -d and ssh -v output this report is not very useful.
